"Information about me as an Abstract Artist"

In 1976 I received my education in the Netherlands at the St. Joost Academy in Breda specialized in painting art and monumental design.

Over the years my work became a distinctive style. Inspiration for creating the various works is often caused by things around me, but also from nature.

Paintings

Some of my paintings are more abstract than others. Using your own imagination you will find the true personal meaning of a painting. Other paintings have a more visible and recognisable landscape in them. These paintings steer you in a particular direction with an emphasis to the beauty of the abstract topic.

The natural elements like water, air (space) and light often play an important role in the themes of my paintings. Especially the aspects spacial movements of these subjects is used by me for emphasising the expressions.

Sculptures

For the making of my sculptures I prefer the natural materials like granite, hard stone, marble, wood and metal. These natural materials come closest to the "natural" results which I have in mind when making a sculpture.
